moi? quality? damn near lost my lunch box on big caps 20 years ago. i'm a bottom buyer, and as long as it doesn't r/s bigly or fold -- i won't buy or hold SEC delinquent -- i bide my time, and i've turned a profit of no less than 4-10X on more than 2/3 of my holds. that is not to say i've had no losers, but the ones that hurt the most were the ones i didn't bottom fish.
'sides which... we didn't chat stocks that much. it was mostly narrative. in those days i was posting my thesis about the market as a multi-platformed WWE written casino, one filled with squared circles for each stock, and in each of them players chose their poison by either daytrading via the roulette wheel, position trading in a game of blackjack, or going long while turning over the cards in poker. in any case, it's the potential of a story, fact or fiction, that piques my interest. sometimes it takes a long time for it to come to fruition. then again....
today i entered OPTI @ .0128 prepared to buy lower. but it didn't want to wait on me. of course, that's today story. tomorrow may offer a different tale.
